We are calling all members, visitors, and friends of First Presbyterian Church to a time of prayer for our congregation as we discern the future of First Presbyterian. This will include
the provision of prayer guides and a series of events focused on God's call to us as First Presbyterian Church in this modern world.

 

WHEN:

Sunday, June 21, 12pm - immediately following worship

 

WHERE:

Please join us for a BBQ & covered dish lunch and a fascinating discussion event! The church will provide BBQ & drinks, plates, cups, and napkins. Attendees are asked to bring a side dish, salad, or dessert.

 

The speaker will be our pastor, Rev. Dr. Jeff Binder, who will discuss his recent trip to Europe involving Holocaust studies.

The following announcement is from Mary McCoy, the volunteer coordinator for the Staunton Cooling Shelter:

 

Central United Methodist Church in Staunton is organizing a cooling shelter beginning
on June 29th for Waynesboro, Augusta County, and Staunton residents who are unhoused or lack working AC. They are providing a cool, air-conditioned space for visitors to seek shelter in during the hottest part of the summer.

 

They are seeking volunteers in the Staunton, Augusta, and Waynesboro area to fill volunteer slots at the cooling shelter.

If anyone at First Presbyterian Church is interested in volunteering, they would love to have them! (Volunteers must be at least 18 years old).

 

Following is a link to a spreadsheet where folks can sign up for a volunteer shift:

If parishioners have any questions, please send an email to stauntoncoolingshelter@gmail.com.

 

Your consideration is appreciated. -- God bless!

 

Warmly,

Mary McCoy
